    Then you need to check the file permission of / /etc /etc/resolv.conf
    or any other file that's needed for host lookup.

    Directories need read and execute permission for NON-ROOT USERS,
    files need read permission for NON-ROOT USERS.

    Then test the host lookup as an NON-ROOT USER.

    If that fails, see if if you're running Apparmor of some other
    security enhancing feature that breaks legitimate applications.
